  • Title: Recruitment and retention of oncology nurses.
    Author: Gullatte MM, Levine NM.
    Journal: Oncol Nurs Forum; 1990; 17(3):419-23. PubMed ID: 2342975.
    Abstract:
    Healthcare delivery is undergoing a startling metamorphosis. The nursing shortage continues to have ripple effects on the healthcare system. Changes expected to occur during this shortage will set the stage for nursing practice for years to come. Resulting staffing concerns are a high priority. Providing holistic care for the patient and family experiencing cancer could be compromised by reduced professional staff and alternative care delivery systems. A creative focus on recruitment, orientation, and retention strategies is needed to achieve a positive balance between recruitment and retention.
